[IsraelTimes] Assault on Charlie Hebdo
... A lefty French satirical magazine, home of what may well be the majority if the active testicles left in Europe...
satirical magazine, a policewoman, and a Jewish supermarket killed 17 people.
French anti-terror judges have recommended that 14 people be tried in connection with the January 2015 jihadist attacks in and around Gay Paree, a judicial source told AFP Friday.
The attacks against the Gay Paree offices of the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine, a policewoman in the nearby suburb of Montrouge, and a Jewish supermarket killed 17 people and marked the start of a wave of jihadist attacks in La Belle France.
Eleven people are in jug suspected of assisting in the attacks, while another three are wanted by police.
Under French law, they can appeal the decision to send them to trial.
The trial, whose date will be determined at a later date, will come more than four years after brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi killed 12 people at the offices of Charlie Hebdo on January 7, 2015.
The next day a policewoman was bumped off just outside Gay Paree, while another gunman, Amedy Coulibaly, took hostages at a Jewish Hyper Cacher shop, four of whom were killed.
All three attackers were killed in two separate shootouts with police.
Those to be tried are accused of "complicity" in assisting the attackers, including providing them with weapons.
Judicial sources said investigations in connection with the attacks were continuing, notably in Yemen, which one of the Kouachi brothers visited in 2011.
Responsibility for the attack against Charlie Hebdo was claimed by al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula
...the latest incarnation of various Qaeda and Qaeda-allied groups, including the now-defunct Aden-Abyan Islamic Army that boomed the USS Cole in 2000...
, an offshoot of the main al-Qaeda organization.
